Bach Jacobs Byrne P A Sarasota Fl review signals at a glance

Sean and Tean were efficient and lead us through the process to modify an irrevocable trust. No surprises!

Not only is Sean Byrne an expert in probate and trust law, but he is also kind. He found critical, as well as missing and incorrect, information that had not been mentioned by our previous lawyer. As a result, he helped us tremendously in making a decision about how we would progress and understanding the corresponding next steps. Given the emotional impact of this with a family member, it is hard to express our gratitude to him for his honesty, diligence, and concern for us. He came highly recommended from a professional in the field, and we could not more strongly recommend Sean Byrne.

We were referred by a friend to Sean Byrne when we needed to update our estate plans. Sean is smart, professional and did a great job for us. We highly recommend him!

I would highly recommend Sean Byrne and his staff for any of your Elder Law needs. They were very knowledgeable and helpful, but were also friendly and easy to talk to. I always felt they had our best interests at heart. They took a complicated situation and created a positive outcome for us. They are the best!

Sean Byrne is the BEST attorney I have ever worked with! Sean and his assistant, Loretta, helped us with a trust that became very complicated because it was in the hands of an unethical attorney. Sean was able to help us get the funding from that attorney though a deposition which gave us enough information to report the other attorney to the FL Bar. Sean and Loretta were kind, conscientious, and brilliant in their strategy. If there was a rating higher than five stars, I would give it to them.

My sister and I went into the Medicaid process for our father without a clue what to do. We researched Elder Care attorneys and decided that we would contact Babette Bach as she came highly recommended. Truly, we were overwhelmed with the process. After our first meeting with Babette and Sherri I felt like I could breath again. They took care of all of the needed steps. I think it is hard to express in a review how impressed and comfortable we were with this team. Thank you both so much!

If you're looking for an amazing experience, hire Sean Byrne! Not only did he cover every detail, he took the time to get to know us and care about our situation. He was flexible, friendly, and very easy to work with. The office is also very responsive to questions. Dealing with an estate is never fun. We've dealt with several. We worked with Sean for the second estate. We wish we would have worked with him on the first one. This firm is the epitome of professionalism and compassion. Stop looking and hire Bach, Jacobs, and Byrne! You won't regret it.

Working with Sean Byrne, of Bach, Jacobs and Byrne, P.A., was a positive and delightful experience Sean is very knowledgable, efficient, and thorough. He is easily reachable and provides timely responses. He recently provided counsel for effectively settling my parent's estates. I would highly recommend he (and his staff) for your elder law needs.

Sean Byrne, Esq. is young, bright and a welcomed addition to our family's trusted advisors.

My husband and I were referred to Sean Byrne, a principal at Bach & Jacobs. Sean, with some input from Fred Jacobs quickly grasped what needed to be done to update our existing trust documents to make them viable in Florida. They also added a few very necessary documents that we had overlooked in our prior estate planning efforts. We have gone back to them again (after five years) for a review and update as things change: the laws governing estates, our financial situation etc. Again we were extremely pleased with the results. They were able to offer an easy solution to what could have been an expensive problem! Both Sean and Fred are good listeners and kindly people. We highly recommend this Sean and this firm for small and large estates!!

I wanted to share my experience in working with Sean Byrne of Bach & Jacobs in hopes it may be of use to others dealing with elder law issues. I was fortunate to find Bach & Jacobs many years ago when I took legal responsibility for my aging mother disappearing into the abyss of Alzheimers. To make a difficult situation even more complex, I was managing this situation remotely from California while my mother resided in Florida. With my mother's trust now closed out, I can say the advisement and empathy from Sean was impeccable. Sean helped me navigate critical legal, tax, financial and trust issues perfectly. Having such an advisor during these complex and stressful times is invaluable. Bach & Jacobs were also fiscally prudent and considerate in helping me to manage the expense burden of managing my mother's finances. If you do find yourself in need of elder law advisement please consider Sean and Bach & Jacobs. They were truly an amazing ally from start to finish in dealing with a heartbreaking situation. Greg V

Professionals Sean Byrne and Loretta Van Zandt came into our lives at the exact right moment and my wife and I feel so lucky to have been able to work with and lean on them during some very trying and unexpected discoveries in our journey to: a) educate ourselves about our legal responsibilities and exposure with regards to my aging father-in-law b) to try to protect and get him some help from afar c) support and guide us through the process of closing out his complicated estate when the unfortunate time came. We knew nothing going into this process except that we would need to implicitly trust whoever we were working with 100% and just hope for the best. Sean and Loretta put the work in, helped us to understand each step and decision along the way, and pulled us throughout without missteps or regrets. No one wants to have to get a lawyer, but honestly having now dealt with more than I've ever expected to have to, no one was more professional or thoughtful or careful than Sean and Loretta. They were our rock, our team, and our lighthouse no matter what we'd have to weather and I'm so grateful for their support and expertise. I learned a lot about closing an estate (real estate and taxes and probate and titles!), but they never made me feel as though I should've known any of this beforehand (because why would I?). Their patience and understanding and empathy was truly above and beyond. If they'll take your care, put them on retainer immediately without hesitation. Best of luck (although you don't need as much when you're with the pros).
